Job 37:19

¹⁷ You whose clothes get hot when the land lies hushed under the south wind,

¹⁸ can you, like Him, spread out the skies to reflect the heat like a mirror of bronze?

Teach us what we should say to Him; we cannot draw up our case when our faces are in darkness.

²⁰ Should He be told that I want to speak? Would a man ask to be swallowed up ?

²¹ Now no one can gaze at the sun when it is bright in the skies after the wind has swept them clean.
